Implication

May inform avian pathogen surveillance; leaves open zoonotic risks and requires further validation.

Study Design

Type

Observational (n=6,765)

Structured PICO

P
Population
6,765 dead wild birds from 201 species in 50 families evaluated over a 12-month period for picornaviruses.
O
Outcome
Identification and genomic characterization of novel picornaviruses

The study identifies three novel picornaviruses in wild birds and proposes two new viral genera based on genomic analysis.

Limitations

  • The type of internal ribosomal entry site for TV1, TV2 and TV3 remains to be determined.

Woo et al. (2010) conducted an observational in Picornavirus infection in dead wild birds (n=6,765). Turdiviruses 1, 2 and 3 was evaluated on Identification and genomic characterization of novel picornaviruses. Three novel picornaviruses, turdiviruses 1, 2, and 3, were identified in dead wild birds, leading to the proposal of two novel genera, Orthoturdivirus and Paraturdivirus.
